Specifies the appointment processes and terms for the Fire Chief of the Hawaii State Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting Unit of the Airports Division of the Department of Transportation. (CD1)

AI Summary

This bill establishes new provisions for the appointment and term limits of the Fire Chief of the Hawaii State Aircraft Rescue Fire Fighting (ARFF) Unit within the Airports Division of the Department of Transportation. Specifically, the bill requires that the director of transportation appoint the Fire Chief from a list of three qualified candidates submitted by the state fire council, with the appointment subject to senate confirmation. The bill sets a four-year term limit for the Fire Chief and restricts any individual from serving more than two consecutive terms. This approach aims to ensure a structured and competitive selection process for this critical emergency response leadership role, while also preventing prolonged tenure that could potentially limit opportunities for new leadership and fresh perspectives in the unit. The bill will take effect immediately upon approval by the appropriate authorities.
